Dial-Up Connections
A dial-up connection is any connection that enables communications between a
Palm-size PC and a remote computer using telephone lines and a modem. Once the
connection is established, you can send and receive e-mail, or even synchronize data
when connected to your desktop computer.
This chapter explains how to make the required settings for a dial-up connection. It
also contains information about the types of computers you can connect to with a dial-
up connection.
